Dear all,
I have prototyped a system using MySql and Python which needs to be
adjusted to use the HTML form data via a web server. I am on 10.4.
Hence I have put the following:
#!/usr/bin/python
Useful test program (cgitest.py):
#!/usr/bin/python
#cgitest.py
import os, cgi, sys
sys.stderr = sys.stdout
print "Content-type: text/html\r\n"
print cgi.print_environ()
print '<br><br>'
print os.environ
in the directory /Library/WebServer/CGI-Executables/ and made it
executable.
When I activate it via my HTML form, the result is to display the
source text of cgitest.py rather than execute it! I hope I have
followed correctly all the points mentioned in the previous email on
this list at
